Subject: Fred Jablin Dissertation Award

DISSERTATION AWARD: $1000. The Jepson School of Leadership Studies at the University of Richmond seeks submissions for the 2012 Fredric M. Jablin Doctoral Dissertation Award. This award was established to honor and celebrate the life of Dr. Fredric M. Jablin (1952-2004). The award will be given annually to a scholar whose doctoral dissertation research, while on any topic and from any discipline, must demonstrate substantial insights and implications for the study of leadership. The Jepson School of Leadership Studies is partnering with the International Leadership Association to publicize the award and to recognize the outstanding scholarship of the recipient.

In order to be eligible for the award competition, a dissertation must be completed between August 1, 2010 and August 1, 2012. The 2012 award recipient will be honored at the Jepson School of Leadership Studies 20th Anniversary Conference, Feb. 1-2, 2013, in Richmond, Va. The recipient will be asked to present his or her doctoral dissertation research and will also receive the following:

  • $1,000 prize from the Jepson School of Leadership Studies
  • Registration and travel expenses to the Jepson School's 20th Anniversary Conference
  • One year membership to the ILA
  • Complimentary conference registration to the 2013 or 2014 ILA global conference

All submissions must be received by Aug. 1, 2012. Interested parties should complete and submit the online application which is available at http://jepson.richmond.edu/about/jda/submissions.html. Candidates must also email a letter of interest, a 3-5 page abstract of a substantive dissertation chapter (specifically, the chapter that best represents the author's dissertation), a brief biography, and verification of the dissertation defense date (e.g., a letter from the dissertation advisor) as separate pdf file attachments to jepsonaward@richmond.edu. Please do NOT send the dissertation. The award committee will contact finalists by Aug. 24, 2012 to request a full dissertation chapter.
